Steve Smith is a Hines Ward kind of receiver. Blue collar possession receiver with great hands! His 40 times weren't too bad either with a 4.37 and a 4.35!
He is listed at 5'11 197 lbs. Draft boards have him going somewhere between the 6th and 7th rounds. We want this guy! I have also seen some scout experts say that this guy is a Pittsburgh Steeler type of receiver. Not exactly sure what that means but I will take that as a compliment! The last WR we drafted out of USC worked out pretty good for us.....Lynn Swann!

Ive heard that phrase get thrown around a lot over the years during draft time. A Steeler type receiver is one of those guys that's tough, has good hands, isn't afraid to go across the middle and take a hit, a guy that's got character and good influence in the locker room. Basically a Hines Ward

I like having those types of guys on our team, but Im also glad we when we a guy like Santonio who can stretch the field and burn em with their speed.

I say no to Brandon Stokley. He is hurt all the time. I wouldn't waste the money on him. Let the young WR's like Washington, Holmes, Reid continue to grow. Plus add a WR in the draft on the second day.

stokely is a bitch, not to mention hes broken......also he used to be a rat didnt he? i guess mabey for depth but the only upside would be he played in the colts system so hes probably a good route runner....he did have over 10 TDs the other year.

I wouldn't mind having that problem!

Living out here in SoCal I get to watch a lot more USC football than any other college team. Steve Smith would be an excellent WR for us! He could be our next Hines Ward! I don't know why he is getting such a low ranking. He had a better year than Jarrett. If we are lucky enough to get him you will like how he plays.
